Maintenance Tip of the Month!

Engine coolant plays a crucial role in maintaining the health of your car, especially in warmer weather. Be sure your vehicle has enough quality engine coolant in the system. Driving on low coolant levels can overheat your engine, which may lead to damage and pricey repairs.

The workings of an AC system in vehicles require regular attention and servicing. 


As we use our vehicles' AC systems regularly, you may start picking up odours from the air vents inside your car. So it's always good to start the season with a fresh cabin filter and keep the AC system in recirculation mode to block outside odours.


Air Conditioning systems are susceptible to glitches and failures due to continual use. A defective air conditioning system can hamper the fuel economy of your vehicle. Replacing your air filter is one of the cheapest and most neglected services for better gas mileage and engine efficiency. So, on your next visit, inquire about your filters and other gas-saving services.

Alternators, Batteries & Electrical

Alternators, Batteries & Electrical

Alternators, Batteries & Electrical

Batteries provide electricity to the electric starter motor to start the car. The alternator generates energy to feed the electrical system and charge the battery. 


Is your engine having issues starting? This could mean a bad battery, a faulty alternator or another unassociated electrical problem. A popular sign of a draining battery is dimming or flickering interior lights. 


A 12-volt car battery will generally last 3-5 years before it needs replacement.

Belts & Hoses

Alternators, Batteries & Electrical

Belts & Hoses

Belts provide power to the moving parts that start, steer, heat, and cool our vehicles, such as the air conditioning compressor, the water pump and the alternator. 


Hoses provide a fluid flow to where they need to be, such as gasoline from the gas tank to the engine or coolant to the heater core. 


After some time, your belt and hoses will lose their capability to expand and contract; sooner or later, they will dry out and crack. An unexpected failure of these significant parts will result in costly repairs. 

Brakes

Engine & Diagnostics

Belts & Hoses

Do you hear any squealing, squeaking or worse, grinding sounds? Do you feel a vibration or pulsation through the brake pedal? These are common warning signs of brake problems which could mean that your brakes need to be serviced immediately. 


Preventative maintenance is important, and your brakes are no exception; an excellent way to keep up is to have your brakes inspected at your following oil change and tire rotation service appointment. 

Engine & Diagnostics

Engine & Diagnostics

Engine & Diagnostics

If you notice your car's 'check engine light is on or your vehicle is showing signs of a problem such as stalling, rough idling, knocking, or pinging while accelerating, you should have your vehicle serviced. 


Often, your vehicle's diagnostics system will identify an engine issue and cache the matching repair code, which we will access to determine the scope of your engine trouble.  

Exhaust & Mufflers

Engine & Diagnostics

Engine & Diagnostics

Exhaust is the complete system, from the cylinder head to the tailpipe, including the exhaust manifold, catalytic converter, muffler, pipes, and hardware that attach it to the frame. 


The exhaust system ensures connecting pipes keep toxins and gas emissions from entering your vehicle and reduce the degree of exhaust noise from the engine. 


Some signs of exhaust trouble:


  • The smell of the exhaust or rotten eggs when the car is running
  • Loud or rattling noises when accelerating
  • Poor full efficiency

All it can take is one big pothole! Wheels out of position affect your suspension system and steering, as well as uneven wear on the tires. 


Pulling is one of the most common signs of an alignment problem. If you are driving on a straight, smooth road and your car pulls to one side without you turning the wheel, have your wheels properly lined up.
